Staying with Raywyn and Charlie was an absolute pleasure. We were picked up and dropped off at the airport (40 minute ride) for a minimal fee and made feel completely at home. Our room was spacious and comfortable with a lovely large outdoor area. This is an area of Bangkok where VERY little English is spoken so you really do get the local feel. Charlie was wonderful in writing Thai instructions to give to our amazingly cheap taxi, and in telephoning people for us, to clarify things. The swimming pool was great to cool off in, and we enjoyed a few games on the pool table. There is a big outdoor kitchen/ BBQ area and lush garden. The nearby weekend market with 9000 stalls was an eye opener. Raywyn helps at an orphanage so anything for small children is appreciated. We left intrigued with Thailand and knowing we had 2 new friends.
